Here’s the weekly post from my author blog on the new releases I found to be of interest in my three favorite romance genres (which are also the ones I write in!), and related areas such as time travel, steampunk, paranormal cozy romances and more. I do sometimes cover other releases of note in science fiction and fantasy.
As always, I recommend sampling before you buy! I have not read most of the new releases listed (although I always end up one-clicking a bunch as I prepare these posts). I don’t pick up every single new release each week but try to provide a representative subset and lots of choices.
Here’s a teaser for this week’s first two books (jump to the blog to see the approximately 95+ titles featured this week):
ARIES (GALAXY GLADIATORS ALIEN ABDUCTION SERIES BOOK 22) by Alana Khan
He’s an admitted killer with a secret past. She’s the only woman who can save him. In a ritual that forbids touch but demands intimacy, one accidental brush of skin could result in death. Callie – I volunteered to save him without thinking twice. Now I’m stuck in ancient redemption rituals with the brooding gladiator I’ve carefully avoided for five years. The rules are simple: • live together • prove our bond is genuine • absolutely no touching But as each intimate trial reveals the honorable male behind his walls, I’m facing an impossible truth: The gladiator I thought cold and distant has been protecting me all along—from himself and the truth behind his so-called crime. Aries – I don’t deny I killed someone. I deserve death. But Callie sees something in me worth saving—even as I push her away. The rituals demand emotional intimacy. The trials forbid even a single touch. Every confession peels back my armor. Every moment with her tempts me to risk everything. When our enemies sabotage the trials to ensure my execution, I’m left with one impossible choice: Accept a pardon that means losing her forever—Or risk death for a love I never thought I deserved.
DEFIANCE (INTERSOLAR UNION SERIES BOOK SEVEN) by Etta Pierce
Her scent was in his lungs, and they’d never even met. Novak Gaul is a free agent on a short leash. Most of the time, he forgets that his life isn’t his own, but when a human woman’s scent latches onto him like she was meant to be his, he has to run the other way or risk the consequences. Until his boss calls in a favor. A highly illegal favor with massive personal and political implications. His human’s name is Charlie, and he needs to use her as bait. But when it’s time to let her get taken, will he be able to let her go? For the sake of humanity, he hopes so. The Intersolar Union series is a long-arc action-packed dramatic romance series featuring a different couple in each book (except for Books 1 & 2).
